The way it's portrayed in the last updates is closer to femdom than to the opposite, yes. And it's in clear contrast with OIALT, where none of this ever happened.
Thinking "I'm a lucky bastard" once in a while it's alright, but acting and talking like he should be thankful for having any kind of contact with them, every single minute, IS much closer to femdom than to the opposite. HE is the hero, he is on the way to be the next Founder, they are attracted to him because of that. In OIALT he wasn't an insecure pussy full of incel vibes, but in Eternum it looks like he is more insecure by the day, when he should be less so because he is being increasingly successful.
Sorry for the approaching wall...
First off, while there is a tiny connection to OLIAT in Eternum, I have never once while playing the latter thought to compare the 2 games (MC & Harem Members) as being the same or equal.
Orion was on the verg of death, would have in fact died if he had not been able to subconsciously teleport to Calypso (an ability he did not even know he had) to get saved. I assure you when you come that close to dying you tend to rethink things about your life (or at least most sane people would). Orion realized he had sort of been halfhearted in his pursuit of the girls and upon reflecting on his past actions realizes that he does indeed LOVE each of the girls, which he had not expressed in any form prior really, and that he is IN FACT grateful to have them in his life. (again normal, IMO, for most people)
His life before arriving back home was not that of the "fuckboi" he narrated himself to be on the train. He was more or less unpopular, a loner (with the exception of Chang and Annie) and not used to getting the attention of so many (beautiful) girls, so his thinking he is lucky is more or less an accurate thought, IMO, considering his previous experience. I also do not feel like the girls like him because he is on his way to being the next Founder (especially since he is in fact working to be the exact opposite of the current Founder), the girls are attracted to Orion for many reasons, Annie has been in love with him for 10 years, Nova because of the way he treats her and brought "life" into life. I could go on and on but we seem to be playing 2 totally different games. I mean, for what they are all trying to pull off, the girls all will need to be strong, capable and independent all while being able to function in a team environment and I would hate...
hate to see them all become some simple minded sex slaves the moment they are naked with Orion and lose all their personality becoming some timid slave to their apparent master.
But hey... that might just be me.
Now Nancy, while being aggressive towards Orion if because she has been single mostly for what... 10-12 years, she broke her walls down and figured she had to be (due to the age gap, I mean who would want an
Sexy, beautiful, seemingly ageless old woman like her) and even in the elevator as she tries to take control, Orion takes it back and they split that control. Now, a woman telling her lover what to do during sex is not a bad thing, unless the guy is a control freak who things he is flawless and knows her body better than she does, so I don't see that type of coaching as a negative either.
I have played a game or two with femdom, not my favorite kink for sure, and have not felt that even once playing Eternum. Nor have I seen Orion as a lil bitch boy. He has very little experience, he is young & he has a lot of responsibility. He too
thought he was the HERO until he was shot and laid dying, he still harbored those thoughts in the back of his head until Thanatos handed him his ass on a silver platter AGAIN, and maybe I am wrong but I think he will go through another moment of growth while in Calypso's land and maybe learn some real humility. Which might bring more offensive (to some) growth in his relationships with the girls. IMO, this would be a good thing for his character development if we are to believe he is to reign over a happy harem.
Wall is built and done, sorry... just some of the arguments/discussions here sometimes... ya know.
